My father was on life support but Alhamdullilah, got off after 44 days and was in the hospital including rehab for over 70 days. He got hit on the peak of nyc during the time of March. It scares me when people around the U.S are not taking this seriously and it startles me.
I am sorry for your family had to deal with the virus, BUT you cannot take one lived experience and equate to the overall numbers. WE already know hospitals in NYC were incentivised to list deaths as Covid and even illness as Covid for financial gain. Money motivates. So its only natural to look at the numbers with a degree of skepticism. Thats why some people think they are using this for political gain and it honestly makes sense. It would be one thing if the death rate was 25%, but its not even close to pandemic worthy.
Your father was MURDERED, since end of feb, it was known that an anti-viral like tamiflu (US$30) plus azitromicin (US$20) is enough to cure 99.9% of the cases... the virus is mortal, IF NOT TREATED..

@@Sinaeb the false positive rate is not a huge deal for the seroprevalence studies mentioned in the video because the error rate is small compared to the size of the sample. But false positives are a problem for individuals getting antibody tests, or for seroprevalence studies in areas where the outbreak was more contained, because the sample is much smaller. That's part of why immunity passports haven't been adopted.
I’m consistently impressed by Vox when it comes to visual storytelling. This was such an original and informative way to tie the data with real people, something that’s often overlooked from other media outlets.

There is a lot of space between "Fully-recovered" and "Dead", there seems to be lot of people who "survive" but have ongoing health problems. This is no "flu".
The disease destroys your lung cells. Depending on the severity of the disease, the permanent damage to your lungs can be very serious. Those who get intubated and survive (about 1 out of 2) will suffer serious damage to their lungs. I don't know how long it takes to fully recover, or if it's even possible. I know I've had a benign form of COVID-19. I coughed for about 3 weeks, and I felt my lungs weren't at full capacity for a month and a half. Now I am fully recovered, but I don't know what the capacity of my lungs is.
The current pandemic will end. Either because of a vaccine or other ways..... The COVID-19 virus may be with us forever. Or it may evolve into something relatively "harmless".

@@bentoboxofire7404 CDC: latest preliminary estimate of the 2017-2018 flu is 61 000, but could just as likely be 46 000 - 95 000 in a 95 % Confidence grade.
A lot of people will point to this to say that we’ve overreacted in response to the pandemic, but the truth is the most concerning part it how infectious the virus is. Even assuming a 1% death rate that’s still several times more deadly than the flu, and we have a vaccine for the flu. If we never put any quarantine or safety measures in place and continued life as usual, and let’s say 1/4 of the country caught it (which is absolutely feasible) we’d be looking at 820,000 deaths. In my state we’re actually adding MORE cases per day than we were two months ago and we have some of the strictest quarantine measures in the country.
1.1% IFR is incorrect and Vox pulled it out of their ***. The CDC itself now estimates the fatality rate to be somewhere around 0.4 % with 30% of cases asymptomatic.
Let's see where we are on Dec 31, 2020, what with the peaceful and legal protests even despite mask-wearing, police jailing legal and illegal actors, all of the protests and chaos that will inevitably happen whoever wins the presidential election, more businesses opening up.

@@jasperw.7930 So we've been faced with the ever changing "flu" since 1918 without a true vaccine yet in a few months we have one for this. It's just made a few people sick, spinal problems and other side effects but yeh we have a vaccine. Comic book much?
We know that about twice as many people have died from it, than the seasonal flu that comes each year, and that the number of people who require ICU admissions is enough to overload the hospitals. That's enough to be a problem.
You forgot to mention how the social situations can lead to more stress and other mental health issues which can lead to an increased death rate (aka indirectly due to the virus)
That and the fact alot of people were scared of going to Hospitals due to the medias dishonest reporting and died from a condition medical treatment could have cured. Gee wonder how many of these excess deaths are due to that.... Also let's not forget humans don't like being cooped up for long periods of time and this cabin fever can lead to domestic violence...
Dude. This is way to serious for me. I was just relaxing, happy for my last day of online school, and bam! Like that I am sad that people are dying from Covid-19 more and I can’t do anything because I am abiding the rules

@@faizanbashir5175 Lol no. People focus on unreported deaths, I focus on unreported cases. I think 90% of cases go unreported, compared to like 50% of deaths, so doing the math, the COVID death rate is really around 1%, and around 3% in places with poor healthcare. Nowhere near the 10-15% some people are claiming.

May 11th I lost my 99 year old WWII Marine Corps veteran grandfather, I called him Poppy. He was a milkman at his fathers company in his early days before being a Scouts Observer later on in the Marines. He needed up being wounded and became the recipient of a Purple Heart. My poppy got shot through and through both knees and was still up and talking and walking just 2 weeks before he passed. Don’t even get me started on the strength of his bear hugs. He would have been 100 years old July 24. He and other residents in his assisted living unit tested positive for Covid-19. He never showed a single sign other than no appetite, he actually tested negative before he passed but his body at that point was too weak to recover. I will miss my poppy for the rest of my life but I’m so blessed and grateful for the time I had with him and the wisdom he taught all of his children & grandchildren. Rest in Eternal Peace with Mommom now Poppy, I’ll see you again one day. I love you so much RIP ARMIT E HARRISON 7/24/1920-5/11/2020
The power and impact of sharing individual stories is incredible. Seeing the number of deaths is jarring, but to hear Mr. Vega's story, a great man who moved to a new country, started working young and moved up the totem pole to eventually own his own business, is heartbreaking. A wonderful life only halfway lived cut short by this awful disease. May Mr. Vega rest in peace, and his family find solace in the fact they had the privilege of being loved by him for as long as they were.
Great video. For the post guys, I recommend considering adding a transient designer to the voiceover and pulling down the transients a bit. They're a bit sharp in this video.
This shows why testing is so important, but most countries still haven't done enough. Covid-19 has also become a political issue in many countries, making the numbers even less reliable, and the US is no exception.
the language, the musics, the way how you tell the stories is the best i think. even though english is not my mother language (i'm intermediate) i'm very comfortable at understanding your videos, thanks vox.
As 2020 draws to a close, it would be interesting to see this vid updated, especially its Excess Death graphics, to see what’s changed from earlier in the pandemic. This was a great video; the Vox team has an inate ability to visualize data and present it for easier consumption.
Perfect. Some of us have decided to quit looking through then lens of the government and some, sadly have not. The price of admission to our club is FREE!
They also didn't tell you if Mr. Domingo had prior conditions or not. They also fail to mention the people who didn't from something completely unrelated but because they supposedly also had covid 19 they counted them as covid deaths as well. They are using numbers as weapons....
My uncle sadly dead as he got covid and got over it then three months later he had a heart attack and it was put down to covid and that=BS numbers for me..
The production of this piece is outstanding. I assume that a lot of this was shot indoors because of the pandemic and it was just so creative and different from the usual videos that we see on RUclips. Restrictions seem to have birthed amazing creativity. Bravo!!!
Family friend works in a hospital in Queens. She said for every 30 deaths, only 13 are put on record. Why? Because the hospital doesn't want to be in trouble for negligence. The bodies piled up so much that they were stepping on the dead bodies. That explains why large refrigerator trucks keep coming by. This absolutely breaks my heart to find out after lockdown, because when it was lockdown, I felt so depressed and sad hearing the ambulance sirens every 15 - 30 minutes. I live near Elmhurst Hospital, and the sirens just keep on going on all day all night. 💔
India is sad :( You guys did EVERYTHING right to stop this & through no fault of your own, you're still suffering really badly from it. Wishing you, your family & country all the best!
@Raz Patnaik Virus reacts to host's body differently. So, symptoms of the disease differs from person to person. Corona Virus is no different. In USA the symptoms are different and in India its different. It is predominantly asymptomatic in India and was symptomatic in Italy and Spain. The reason Why it spreading in India faster (as you said like 1000s and 1000s) is our habits. Spitting pan in public places could be a reason. Coughing and sneezing, even speaking loudly (culture) can spread this as this is a first ever air-borne disease.

RIP to all fatal victims of Covid-19. I feel so sad for their families at the end of the video when pictures of late victims popped up on the screen one-by-one.
The visuals man! The visuals... Clear, informative, moving and with a much needed touch of humanity on this global issue!
The problem with antibody testing is that they can give false positives.
And it's been proven to be more inaccurate then the infection testing
Yet the false positive rate is much lower than needed just for a survey...of an accuracy rate of less than 2%
@@rustteze 2% is a lot in the medical world
@@Sinaeb but not much in the world of statistics.
@@Sinaeb the false positive rate is not a huge deal for the seroprevalence studies mentioned in the video because the error rate is small compared to the size of the sample. But false positives are a problem for individuals getting antibody tests, or for seroprevalence studies in areas where the outbreak was more contained, because the sample is much smaller. That's part of why immunity passports haven't been adopted.
The public: so is this new coronavirus more dangerous than the ones we've always known?
Vox: Yes, but actually no.
Vox: Yes, but not as dangerous as it seems, but maybe as dangerous as it seems. Well, actually we don't know anything.
I’m consistently impressed by Vox when it comes to visual storytelling. This was such an original and informative way to tie the data with real people, something that’s often overlooked from other media outlets. And, knowing that a lot of that data was animated using stop motion...! Seriously, great job!
The graphic, the information, the music, the presentation, all is so perfect in this video
Its still a pandemic and we should be worried about it
We need to keep an eye on it sure ... but not forget we’ve lived for thousands of year in symbiosis with viruses...
The pandemic was the panic
@Gabby The Cat I feel sorry for you. Hope you can realize how wrong you are someday...
Willem de Zwijger maybe there’s a reason the WHO doesn’t approve Artemesia annua and other USEFUL and often natural products.... just think about it...
@@jme7298 yea, enjoy your "contact tracing app" lol
Beautiful animation. As motion designer I focused so mush on visual side of things that I couldnt keep truck on what has been said, LOL
It means you have a real passion ❤️
Was there anything notable that you want to point out as an animator? Anything you found especially cool?
@@nuance6631 Mixing stop motion animation (pins on table) with video footage and 2d animation (projected on the wall) was a cool idea. Finally, placing it all together inside school lab with dimmed light and overhead projector? It's like going back to high school :D

Kudos to the person/people who rearranged the lights. Great job!
There is a lot of space between "Fully-recovered" and "Dead", there seems to be lot of people who "survive" but have ongoing health problems. This is no "flu".
The disease destroys your lung cells. Depending on the severity of the disease, the permanent damage to your lungs can be very serious. Those who get intubated and survive (about 1 out of 2) will suffer serious damage to their lungs. I don't know how long it takes to fully recover, or if it's even possible. I know I've had a benign form of COVID-19. I coughed for about 3 weeks, and I felt my lungs weren't at full capacity for a month and a half. Now I am fully recovered, but I don't know what the capacity of my lungs is.
I hadn't thought of that
thanks
@@InXLsisDeo glad you made out it out alive.
So your gonna lock yourself in room for all ypur life
This whole video is “Well yes, but actually no.”
FunwithStewart that’s all there is now
More like “a lot more died but even more were affected.”
Because there's no simple answer to complex questions like this
@@robezy0 well said!
Welcome to real life where everything is grey.
I hope this pandemic is over soon as possible....
The current pandemic will end. Either because of a vaccine or other ways.....
The COVID-19 virus may be with us forever. Or it may evolve into something relatively "harmless".
@@jme7298 Willem, viruses are all over our planet. They were here LONG before we 'humans'.
They do not "seek". They exist.
Please have a look at the science that we know about viruses. Thanks.
Covid-19 is going to be here forever. It is going to be the end of humans eventually
@@mattuk56 We are going to survive this pandemic together, we survived a pandemic that is greater than this corona virus pandemic. We just need to work together and always think of a positive mind.
@@jme7298 interesting. Which animals? domestic or wild?
Vox!
You guys are amazing at making videos man. Like your videos are super intriguing, innovative and are designed and sound soo beautiful.
And all this goes a long way in not just getting the message across, but lodging it deep in my heart and forcing me to contemplate about it.
Amazing work.
Vox: This virus is both MORE and LESS deadly than we thought
Me watching this with covid: ahuh
oh god, I hope you get well soon!
Love the way how you introduce new methods and objects for data representations. Very well explained.
if i represented data with Hanukkah bulbs at my job, I would be rightly fired
@@alquinn8576 Haha
@@bentoboxofire7404 CDC: latest preliminary estimate of the 2017-2018 flu is 61 000, but could just as likely be 46 000 - 95 000 in a 95 % Confidence grade.
A lot of people will point to this to say that we’ve overreacted in response to the pandemic, but the truth is the most concerning part it how infectious the virus is. Even assuming a 1% death rate that’s still several times more deadly than the flu, and we have a vaccine for the flu. If we never put any quarantine or safety measures in place and continued life as usual, and let’s say 1/4 of the country caught it (which is absolutely feasible) we’d be looking at 820,000 deaths.
In my state we’re actually adding MORE cases per day than we were two months ago and we have some of the strictest quarantine measures in the country.
Which state do u live in?
No reason to shut down anything
1.1% IFR is incorrect and Vox pulled it out of their ***. The CDC itself now estimates the fatality rate to be somewhere around 0.4 % with 30% of cases asymptomatic.
TL;DR please understand these preliminary stats do NOT mean as much as you think. The CDC still encourages self isolation and social distancing
Let's see where we are on Dec 31, 2020, what with the peaceful and legal protests even despite mask-wearing, police jailing legal and illegal actors, all of the protests and chaos that will inevitably happen whoever wins the presidential election, more businesses opening up. Also, where I live, NO ONE practically speaking wears masks as they frolic in the big boxes. 06 07 2020.
Where's Tony Stark when you need him? He would find a cure.
I doubt that but ok
They have a vaccine, it's just that you need to go through rigorous testing and certification before you can release to the public
@@jasperw.7930 So we've been faced with the ever changing "flu" since 1918 without a true vaccine yet in a few months we have one for this. It's just made a few people sick, spinal problems and other side effects but yeh we have a vaccine. Comic book much?
@@TR5T needs equals must.
He can't even beat a comic character like Thanos, I wouldn't bet a dollar on him.
My dad has corona and this gave me some amount of hope so thank you vox from the bottom of my heart
We don’t know. Really, we don’t.
Hey, buddy, aren’t you a bit busy with The Rumbling to be posting on RUclips? :o
@@tacky_yawn94 I have gain access to all memories through out all history. This is just another work of mine.
We know that about twice as many people have died from it, than the seasonal flu that comes each year, and that the number of people who require ICU admissions is enough to overload the hospitals. That's enough to be a problem.
You forgot to mention how the social situations can lead to more stress and other mental health issues which can lead to an increased death rate (aka indirectly due to the virus)
Yes!!! Stay focused on you. Stay off of social media in these uncertain times. Be happy 😊
That and the fact alot of people were scared of going to Hospitals due to the medias dishonest reporting and died from a condition medical treatment could have cured. Gee wonder how many of these excess deaths are due to that.... Also let's not forget humans don't like being cooped up for long periods of time and this cabin fever can lead to domestic violence...
Such a beautifully made video. Vox, respect to you guys. You're like artists.
Ouch. "Like" artists?😬
Whoever programmed the lights accordingly for the visuals, I LOVE YOU!
Nuclear Effect its lite brite
Dude. This is way to serious for me. I was just relaxing, happy for my last day of online school, and bam! Like that I am sad that people are dying from Covid-19 more and I can’t do anything because I am abiding the rules
You have a good heart
You're saving lives just by staying home, you're actually a life saver in this case
What today's your last day? Where do you live?
Dude, the real world doesn’t stop just because you want to have a good day

Steven Baumann truly heartbreaking
Well done to the artistic and technical teams for an amazing production.
Vox is simply the best. I watched this video twice. The first time I couldn't get my mind off of what I was seeing.. This is such good work, it looks amazing. As someone who's just started learning filming and video editing. This is just mind blowing.
There should be an award for visual storytelling and you should get it.
Thank you for such amazing work.
I wish I had seen this earlier and commented immediately. I want the graphics team to know how much we appreciate you
More people might have died but overall death rate is lower than expected
Please it's higher
@@faizanbashir5175 no its not. But by all means. Stay indoors until the vaccine comes out in a year. Enjoy bro :)
@@faizanbashir5175 Lol no. People focus on unreported deaths, I focus on unreported cases. I think 90% of cases go unreported, compared to like 50% of deaths, so doing the math, the COVID death rate is really around 1%, and around 3% in places with poor healthcare. Nowhere near the 10-15% some people are claiming.
@@wustachemax everyone was comparing it to car crashes and saying its lower than the flu death rate. Now its over flu by over 50 times, according to current status of covid19 cases and deaths. Smh
@@wustachemax Don't count on the vaccine. It may not be found. They still haven't found a vaccine for SARS, which is very similar to COVID, it it's been 17 years since SARS was found. I personally think there will be no vaccine, and we need to learn how to adapt to the new reality in ways other than lockdowns.
Stay Strong, Stay Safe...
And be Alert 🚨, be Happy 😊. NOT WORRIED. That’s how people get Anxiety and depression. It’s the only way out of this Pandemic.
thanks zenitsu

May 11th I lost my 99 year old WWII Marine Corps veteran grandfather, I called him Poppy. He was a milkman at his fathers company in his early days before being a Scouts Observer later on in the Marines. He needed up being wounded and became the recipient of a Purple Heart. My poppy got shot through and through both knees and was still up and talking and walking just 2 weeks before he passed. Don’t even get me started on the strength of his bear hugs. He would have been 100 years old July 24. He and other residents in his assisted living unit tested positive for Covid-19. He never showed a single sign other than no appetite, he actually tested negative before he passed but his body at that point was too weak to recover. I will miss my poppy for the rest of my life but I’m so blessed and grateful for the time I had with him and the wisdom he taught all of his children & grandchildren. Rest in Eternal Peace with Mommom now Poppy, I’ll see you again one day. I love you so much RIP ARMIT E HARRISON 7/24/1920-5/11/2020
This clip is very well done. Congrats to the designers and the director!
This was such a beautifully-produced, yet incredibly informative video on this complex topic. Was educated and moved.
The power and impact of sharing individual stories is incredible. Seeing the number of deaths is jarring, but to hear Mr. Vega's story, a great man who moved to a new country, started working young and moved up the totem pole to eventually own his own business, is heartbreaking. A wonderful life only halfway lived cut short by this awful disease. May Mr. Vega rest in peace, and his family find solace in the fact they had the privilege of being loved by him for as long as they were.
Really appreciate the way you make these digestable but comprehensive explanations
Thank you for simply and clearly explaining why this situation is neither simple not clear!
5:27 feels like important information for the public
Which part
Great video. For the post guys, I recommend considering adding a transient designer to the voiceover and pulling down the transients a bit. They're a bit sharp in this video.
When your proud to not remember the last time u left the house. The one time it helps to be addicted to videogames.
Videogames cause violent behaviour.
I guess, they were kind of indecisive about the title ;)
This shows why testing is so important, but most countries still haven't done enough. Covid-19 has also become a political issue in many countries, making the numbers even less reliable, and the US is no exception.
the language, the musics, the way how you tell the stories is the best i think. even though english is not my mother language (i'm intermediate) i'm very comfortable at understanding your videos, thanks vox.
Very good video. Thanks so much for posting. I hadn't thought about the fatality rates in that way, was eye opening.
How deadly is Covid-19?
Well, we don’t know.
THE MOST DEADLY thing that was ever on the face of the earth, that was already proven
"Mom where's my old LITE - BRITE? I need it for my journalism assignment!"
My first thought was definitely, "I wonder if our old LiteBrite is still at mom's somewhere."

My friend who was 18 years old and in good health passed away from COVID-19. This is killing young people too, don't be fooled.
Love your videos!
Looking at the situation, I hope you make a video explaining how to live with this virus!
As 2020 draws to a close, it would be interesting to see this vid updated, especially its Excess Death graphics, to see what’s changed from earlier in the pandemic. This was a great video; the Vox team has an inate ability to visualize data and present it for easier consumption.
May god bless whom ever passed away
“That don’t need to be told how dangerous this virus can be”
Repeat after me America, you’re free to do as we say lol
Perfect. Some of us have decided to quit looking through then lens of the government and some, sadly have not. The price of admission to our club is FREE!
They also didn't tell you if Mr. Domingo had prior conditions or not. They also fail to mention the people who didn't from something completely unrelated but because they supposedly also had covid 19 they counted them as covid deaths as well. They are using numbers as weapons....
My uncle sadly dead as he got covid and got over it then three months later he had a heart attack and it was put down to covid and that=BS numbers for me..
A simple view of the death rate vs recovery tells you that it's not deadly.

The production of this piece is outstanding. I assume that a lot of this was shot indoors because of the pandemic and it was just so creative and different from the usual videos that we see on RUclips. Restrictions seem to have birthed amazing creativity. Bravo!!!
answer: it spreads hella but fatality rate not as much
Everyone needs to watch Out Of Shadows on RUclips. And then, Fall Of Cabal.
I need a break from social media and from watching the news..too much stress
Good idea. 👍
Production quality of this video earned my like.
Family friend works in a hospital in Queens. She said for every 30 deaths, only 13 are put on record. Why? Because the hospital doesn't want to be in trouble for negligence. The bodies piled up so much that they were stepping on the dead bodies. That explains why large refrigerator trucks keep coming by. This absolutely breaks my heart to find out after lockdown, because when it was lockdown, I felt so depressed and sad hearing the ambulance sirens every 15 - 30 minutes. I live near Elmhurst Hospital, and the sirens just keep on going on all day all night. 💔
*Do a research on India deaths please!*
India is sad :( You guys did EVERYTHING right to stop this & through no fault of your own, you're still suffering really badly from it. Wishing you, your family & country all the best!
@@lilaclizard4504
Thanks
even tho im not in india it spreaded alot in india bc of there is alot of people in india
Indians have a recovery rate of 48%
Out of 215,000 cases, 115,000 have been cured
@Raz Patnaik Virus reacts to host's body differently. So, symptoms of the disease differs from person to person. Corona Virus is no different. In USA the symptoms are different and in India its different. It is predominantly asymptomatic in India and was symptomatic in Italy and Spain.
The reason Why it spreading in India faster (as you said like 1000s and 1000s) is our habits. Spitting pan in public places could be a reason. Coughing and sneezing, even speaking loudly (culture) can spread this as this is a first ever air-borne disease.
